The Ithala Business Achiever Awards recognises clients’ business success and acknowledges their contribution towards developing an entrepreneurial province in KwaZulu-Natal. Given the growing inequalities in employment, income and education, Ithala believes SMME’s can be influential in making a profound impact on the country’s economy by creating jobs. “Ithala’s Business Achiever Awards aims to celebrate our clients’ successes by rewarding, showcasing and sharing their accomplishments with other aspirant business owners to inspire them towards growth and success,” said Mano Muthusamy, Ithala Acting Business Finance Executive.
Audrey Ndlovu is the founder and CEO of UAS. Known for leading the company to 400% growth within the past year, her proven track record of success within the coal analysis and preparation for the local mining sector is built on a solid foundation of empowering recruitment and a strong company culture. "I am extremely proud to receive this recognition from Ithala," says Audrey. "Since the launch of UAS IN 2012 we have been able to positively impact the lives of our employees, community while providing our clients with service excellence."
“I appreciate being in a position where my company is able to have a positive impact on customers, partners, and individuals across the southern Africa,” says Audrey. “With the recent events in the country, we are all reminded of the importance of collaboration and support as well as how important it is to acknowledge the contribution of others and that is why I felt immensely proud to stand on stage next to my fellow recipients at the awards ceremony.”
